The two paralysls victims of this town, Lucille Skinner, the Infant daughter of Superintendent and Mrs. E. BE. Skinner of the Town farm and Edward Morse, son of Mr. and Mrs. Morse of East Berlin are on the road to recovery. Both cases are very mild. Health Officer R. M. Griswold in discussing the disease problem this morning said that every available pre- caution is being taken to prevent fur- ther spread of the disease. The Skin- ner child is paralyzed in the left leg but is convalescing. Suspects Arrested. Three slick looking individuals, whose suspicious actions came to the attention of Prosecutor William H. | Gibney at the fair grounds yesterday, | were taken into custody and charged with belng suspicious characters. It is alleged that the threec men were | pickpockets and were attempting ta | work on the crowd that had as- ! sembled at the grounds. They were | placed in the town lockup and as no { direct evidence could be secured i against them they were released at |11 o’clock last night with the warn- 'ing to get out of town at once. The ,men did not need a second invitation but made haste to shake the dust of Berlin from their feet. i Two concessionists on the midway were noticed conducting gambling wheels in spite of the warning given them by the falr authorities and were school—Edith North- Ginsburg and Edith al. The men were not advised to leave town at once and not be seen at the grounds again. Registrars to Meet., { Reglistrars Joseph J. Morse and Jo- seph E. Corr will be in session at the n clerk’s office tomorrow from 9 o'clock in the morning until 5 o'clock in the afternoon for the purpose of re- ceiving names of all persons who caim they are entitled to be made electors of the town. It is expected that a large number of prospective -vill register, due to the interest in the fall campaign. Lieeuse Petition In.

Much interest is being manifested and it is expected that this year's falr will prove to he a success, financially as well as socially, Gypsles Attract Attention. A band of gypsies has camped near the fair grounds and is mtracting considerable attention. The band travels in large wagons which have been constructed so that they resemble miniature houses on wheels. The women are dressed in gaudy colors and approach many visitors going to- wards the grounds asking to tell their fortunes. Many Minor Collisions Reported. Many minor collisions of vehicles bound towards the fair grounds have Leen reported within the past few days. Traffic has been very heavy, a constant stream of automobiles being always visible on the road. A heavy fog settled over this town last night and combined with the dust of the roads and the smoke from the fire- warks at the fair, many miracui®us escapes from collislons have been re- ported. Traffic officers direct the ve- hicles at the entrance to the gromnds on Farmington road and have been successful in keeping the machines in line and avoiding striking passengers as they alight from the trolleys. Berlin Grange Has Booth. A booth has been placed on the Berlin fair grounds by the local grange and reports received indicate that a goodly sum is being realized from the sale of home-made dainties. A meeting of the grange will be held on Tuesday night at the Grange hall on Farmington road and the exact amout made on the sale will be an- nounced. An interesting program will be furnished after the business meeting and a good attendance is de- sired. Berlin Briefs. Captain J. C. Palmer of Norwich and F. H. Handford, a former resi- dent of this town, were visitors at the Berlin fair taday. Miss Mary Nelson of Kensington left this morning for a week’s stay at Greenfield, Mass. / Miss Anna FoX of the Danbury Nor- mal school, who spoke to the teachers school this morning, is the guest of Mr. and Mrs. F.

C. Tanner for med- es rendered during the il ank S. Neal. The claim wag presented against Mr. Neal's estate nd the officers of the trust company decided that because of its B it should be investigated by representa- tives of the prohate court. The decision has resulted in the filing by Dr. Tanner of a petition ask- ing Judge George R. Byington to name commissioners to consider the laim. A hearing on the application will be held tomorrow afternoon at 3 o’clock in the probate court. For months prior to Mr. Neal's death Dr. Tanner acted as physician in the case, making two or three calls daily at the Neal home for a num- ber of weeks. His claim for serv- ices totals $537. It is understood that the trust company does not claim the hill is exorbitant but believes that its payment should be considered by commissioners rather than by the executor. All other bills against the estate have been allowed by the executor. That there is still a possibility of a contest over the legality of the will is admitted by Judge Byington who has been advised that one of Mr. Neal’s cousins has retained counsel in an effort to break it. The cousin in question is a man named Leonard who resides in Springfield and who had no notice of the hearing held some time ago when the will was admitted. The trust company notified the court of the residence of all known relatives but Leonard’s name was omitted as the bank officials had no knowledge of the relationship. Leonard has requested the court to provide him with a copy of the will and he claims to be considering the filing of objection to the distribution of the property in the manner sug- gested in the document. He supplied no information as to the grounds on which he proposes to dispute its le- gality. Two other cousing of Mr. Neal pre- pared to contest the will when it was first flled with the court but they sub- sequently gave up the idea and the document was approved by Judge By- ington. Democrats Make Selections, Confirming the forecast made sev- eral days ago by party leaders the democrats last evening selected Wil- liam C. Hart as their candidate for first selectman at the October election. The choice was made by acclamation on motion of A. H. Dresser and there was no objection. Mr. Hart has ac- cepted the nomination and he stated today that he will conduct a vigorous campaign during the next few weeks. The caucus was held in the court room in the town building and was well attended. H. A. Castle, chair- man of the democratic town commit- tee, presided and Willlam L. Cafferty served as clerk. There were no contests for any of the places on the ticket and the nom- inations were quickly made. An ef- fort was made to make Mr. Hart a candidate for constable but the plan was dropped after it was learned that the selectman cannot serve in this capacity. The caucus marked the return to the democratic party of John H. Con- lon, who deserted to the G. O. P. two years ago when he was named for constable by the republicans. Last year his new found political associates deserted him and he failed of renom- ination at the caucus. He is now back in the democratic fold and his name will appear on the ballot with those of the other candidates fon places as police officers. Other nominations made last eve- ning were: Assessor—Frank G. Osborne. Board of relief—Edward P. Prior. Selectmen—William C. Hart and Frederick S, Spencer. Auditor—Frank G. Osborne. Grand jurors—Minton A. Norton, Albert H. Dresser. b Tax collector—E. D. Spellman. Constables—John E. Conlon, Corne- lius Downing, Albert Sturgeon and Gaetano Casciello. Registrar of voters—A. D. Cady. Treasurer—iles Buell. School committee—Rev. Walsh. Library rest hill ser a = T director—William Foran. Want Opening Date Advanced. Parents of some of the children in town are talking of circulating a peti- tion suggesting the postponement of the opening of the schools from next Monday until some later date because ~f the Infantile paralysis scare, They believe that while there is not the htest danger of an epidemic the school children should be left at home. The plans of the school board at »resent call for the beginning of the foll term on Monday, and unless the situation changes in the meantime the classes will assemble on that date. The board believes with the health of- ficer that as long as the children and teachers remain in Plainville and keep away from public gatherings | The Hartford Sitk Store Established 1832, will admire. tion.
